Question

When the positive integer k is divided by the positive integer n, the remainder is 11. If \small \frac{k}{n} = 81.2, what is the value of n ?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hence, the positive integer k is divided by the positive integer n, the remainder is 11, could be written as k = nq + 11. Divide by n: k/n = q + 11/n. We are also given that k/n = 81.2 = 81 + 0.2. So, the quotient, q, is 81 and 11/n is 0.2: 11/n = 0.2 --> n = 55.
